Grace of Sunshine

When June emerges through its gentle rise
The cloak  of sunshine bares an amber tint;
Glimmering on our lush fields,  that reprise
A varnish of leaves, hued trees now imprint
Morn's luster as  crystal rays spill anew
A dazzle, a  blush like folks’ warm embrace
While toddlers hop and prance amidst sweet dew,
That frames of light imbue auroral grace :
How birdsong  on boughs chirp in reverence
So effortless like this daybreak’s  fresh  array,
Till prayers bless a god’s omnipresence 
Bestowing life in a heavenly way.

Magnificent the grandeur  of dome's beam
Until it rests , hanging low yet agleam.


Your best sonnet for John Hamilton's Contest
